Starting the year off well.

One speed work session done.

Running calendar is complete through May.

Race plans are set. Just need a few registrations to open up.

First race is trail in February.

Didn’t get into Chicago. Probably better I didn’t get a lottery entry.

Would have been an expensive trip.

1500 miles this year. By far the most I’ve ever run.

PR in 5–Miler. 2025 was a successful running year.

I’ll have 2026 goals up in a few days.

4th Marathon loading.

It’s tough tho!

Damn I was looking for the link.

They could just pay you to do it correctly!

There’s one more paid race then rest of the month is figuring out training regimen for 26’.

By Dec 18 I’ll know if I won Chi Marathon lottery

Ran 90 miles in Nov w an 8 & 10 mile runs after the half.

Plan is to run close to that (weather permitting) until Spring (March) then start ramping up.

Ran local Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving and hit a PR for that distance as well.

Ran a half about two weeks later and hit another PR for that distance.

I missed a few months here.

I’ll sum it up.

Had a blast at Marine Corps Marathon. Hit a PR

Yes sir!

Yes sir. Automatic cop.

5:53.7 in mile race this morning. I’m tired. Too old for this.

This is on par for me with running a marathon. It’s hard.
